In the Human Race’s Heavenly Court, James found the Halcyon Road that had reappeared at the depths of the Dark World. However, the other races were still unaware.Despite that, it would not be long before the news about the Halcyon Road’s reemergence spread throughout the Dark World.Nobody knew what kind of storm it would stir up this time.Outside the Heavenly Court, a woman appeared. She immediately caught the attention of the Heavenly Court’s powerhouses. Many of the Heavenly Court’s members appeared at the South Heaven Gate.A woman in a white dress and an exceptional aura hovered outside the South Heaven Gate. She looked like a mysterious and ethereal being.Many people, especially Hetsema, were stunned to see the woman. He stared at the woman, and memories of the distant past resurfaced.Hetsema shouted, “Mom!”The woman who had appeared was Yemima, Hetsema’s biological mother.However, Yemima had already been reincarnated, and her current body was of a white fox.She
Yemima disappeared after speaking. In the next second, she appeared before Thea, reaching out to pull the latter.James stopped Yemima just in time and confronted her attack.Boom!Powerful energy filled the place.James’ body flew backward from the blow.Even though he used the Tressencia Completare Art and obtained a new power, he still could not go up against Yemima, who was in the eighth stage of the Transcendental Bliss Rank.The gap between the two was huge. Although James had the Obsidian Body and was not injured, he was knocked back due to the powerful energy.As he stumbled backward, Yemima’s potent energy engulfed Thea.Thea wanted to fight back, but Yemima’s power was too strong. Thea was only in the Consummation Quasi Bliss Rank. She could not fight back at all.Having trapped Thea, Yemima disappeared.“Don’t leave!” shouted James.Then, he used the power of Anceralos. It entered his body in continuous streams.Following that, his body disappeared and entered th
Wyot appeared and dissolved James’ most powerful sword without a sweat. Then, he disappeared. Following that, the entrance of the Halcyon Road also vanished.Even though James had entered the Transcendental Bliss Rank, he could not sense where the entrance of the Halcyon Road was.Standing in the dark space, he clenched his fists as veins popped up on his face and intense anger exuded from his body.His anger was terrifying. The dark space around him was constantly getting destroyed. It was collapsing.He did not know why the Halcyon Road suddenly disappeared.His Zen seeped out and continued to sense the dark space. Unfortunately, he could not sense the existence of the Halcyon Road.He left, feeling sad.In the Human Race’s Heavenly Court, many members of the Human Race gathered.All of them were waiting anxiously.Soon, James returned. Seeing James’ sad expression, everyone could guess the outcome.James did not manage to get Thea.Qairo, Xeraiah, Quattro, and other livin
James stared at Xezal and said, “You must have recovered your memory of the Anceralos Era since your cultivation rank increased so quickly. I’m here to see you because I want to know what happened to the Dark World after Xayvion and I died in Anceralos.”James wanted to get an explanation from Xezal. At the same time, he wanted to confirm Thea’s true identity.No matter Thea’s background, she was his wife in this life. No one could harm her.Nevertheless, he needed to find out the truth.Upon hearing that, Xezal fell into deep thought. The matters of the past continuously emerged in her mind.A while later, she said, “Back then, after you and Xayvion died, the Hagios Sect led many powerhouses of the races from the Dark World to wipe out the Morro Sect. The races from the Dark World suffered heavy losses, but the Dark World became peaceful for some time.”“What happened after that?” James asked.Xezal took a deep breath and said, “Xayal recovered after absorbing a lot of Dark Ene
When James returned to the Human Universe, he went straight to the Orstellen Sect.Upon arriving at the Orstellen Sect, he entered the Orstellen Realm. In the realm, he sensed Lady Tehila’s aura from the past Endlos.After sensing a bit of aura left behind in the area, he began to use the Extrapolation Formation to find out Lady Tehila’s location.Before him, a mysterious formation rotated rapidly. James received some pieces of information. Several pictures emerged in his mind.They were a scene in the deepest part of the Dark World.James’ body disappeared and entered the Dark World. He rushed toward the place he extrapolated.He continued to use the Blithe Omniscience to traverse the void.Soon, he arrived at the deepest part of the Dark World.It was an unknown area. No races’ universes were in this area. The area was shrouded in darkness.Even though James was now a powerhouse in the Transcendental Bliss Rank, his Zen could only reach a short distance.In the vast Dark Wo
James could not see his hands in the black mist. He relied on his senses to walk forward.Slowly, the black mist in his sight disappeared.Although it disappeared, James was still in darkness. It was just that darkness and light had no difference to him with his current cultivation rank.James scanned his surroundings.He saw the main hall of the palace. At the center of the main hall, a lady was sitting on the ground with her legs crossed. She was staring at the entrance of the main hall.James walked over to the lady.His footsteps sounded loudly in the quiet palace.All of a sudden, the lady sitting on the ground woke up. She got up and turned to look at the man walking toward her. She could not help but be taken aback.James was also shocked.“Teacher?”After a while, a beautiful voice sounded in the quiet main hall.“Hershya? Why is it you?” James recovered from the shock. The lady before him was the disciple he recruited in Anceralos.James took a few steps forward an
“That’s right. The Dark Heavenly Path,” said Hershya sternly.Recovering from the shock, James asked, “What’s that about?”Hershya pointed at the wall at the front of the palace and said, “Look.”James looked where Hershya pointed. Ahead of him was a mysterious-looking wall. Several lines of characters were carved on the wall.James found the characters familiar. He had seen them before.Previously, when Thea was meditating in seclusion, similar inscriptions appeared around her.Hershya explained, “This palace is magical. It’s made up of the Dark Heavenly Path. Everything in the palace is the core of the Dark Heavenly Path. When I first arrived here, the Heaven’s Law was incomplete. It was only recently restored.“During that battle, many powerhouses worked together and used the Dark Heavenly Path to deal with Xayal. Even though they injured Xayal and forced the latter to reincarnate, the Dark Heavenly Path was damaged.”“What does this have to do with Thea?” James asked.Hers
James did not have the time to care about all that.“Wyot took Thea away, and the Halcyon Road has also disappeared. I can’t enter it. Why don’t you leave this place with me? We’ll go to the Halcyon Road and ask Wyot to hand over Thea. If we don’t leave now, Thea might be in danger.”“Alright.”Hershya could sense Thea being taken away because she had seen everything in the Heavenly Path.She did not leave because she wanted to find Xayal’s location via the rules of heaven and earth.“Let’s go,” said Hershya. Then, she left the Dark Heavenly Path Palace.Once they walked out of the palace, it disappeared from the deepest part of the Dark World. They arrived in the area where the entrance of the Halcyon Road was located.The entrance of the Halcyon Road had been sealed. Even though James was in the Transcendental Bliss Rank, he could not sense its existence. Xezal mentioned that only a powerhouse in the Yuraeceon Rank could open the seal and enter the Halcyon Road.When they
The sky was a brilliant blue, accented by white clouds. Vast plains stretched out with rolling peaks, rivers, and seas crisscrossing the expansive land, while an aura of Spiritual Energy permeated everything. This was a new world, brimming with life and vitality, existing independently from the myriad realms.Countless cultivation resources awaited discovery here. Unending adventures beckoned the brave, and limitless opportunities awaited those with exceptional talent.This was the new world James had created, based on the Forty-Nine Daoisms and merged with his own Daoism, to resolve the Leere Tribulation and save countless beings across the myriad realms.In this world, there was no powerful Heavenly Path, no hierarchy of races, no strict rules or oppressions, and no fate governing everything. Instead, actions were judged by karma. Fortune and misfortune, as well as success and failure, were determined by karma.Though it adhered to the principle of survival of the fittest and res
“No wonder,” Lord Goyo finally understood after an extended contemplation.He distinctly remembered that back at the Yin’s Void, Jacopo, the incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, had abruptly ordered him to move all foundations out of the Dark World. In hindsight, everything now made sense. It was likely that Jacopo had foreseen all of this.Realizing this, Lord Goyo felt a chill run down his spine as cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Despite doubting Jacopo’s identity as an incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, he had followed his advice. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous.Snapping back to reality, Lord Goyo looked down at the Yang governor and Gladwin from his elevated position.“You fool, do you realize your mistake?”The Yang governor and Gladwin looked up simultaneously, their faces full of fear.“Lord Goyo, I truly didn't notice this. I had no idea when the Dark World was separated.”“Lord Goyo, there is something fishy about this. If James has
At the peak of Mount One in the myriad realms, the Yang Governor, disguised as James, descended with Gladwin. Both looked deathly pale, as if they had just escaped a life-threatening disaster. They were filled with panic.They stopped simultaneously upon arriving beneath a massive platform in a grand dojo.“We need to sort this out first,” the Yang Governor glared fiercely at Gladwin. “Who's going to explain this later, you or me?”Gladwin swallowed nervously. “Of course, it should be you.”“Why should it be me?” the Yang Governor scoffed. “Haven't you always claimed to be Lord Goyo's top confidant and meddled in our alliance's affairs? Now you're chickening out when there's a major issue?”Gladwin's face twitched. “This has nothing to do with cowardice. It's your duty as the leader of the Path Guardian Alliance.”The Yang Governor laughed in exasperation. “You've always been the one gathering intelligence across the myriad realms, boasting that you're better than Yegor from Skyn
That was the first thing he asked after surviving a monumental battle. James patted his shoulder. "The twenty thousand men…" "As long as it's broken," Wyot interjected, staring into the emptiness. "It's a pity the Dark World is gone forever."James wanted to respond, but the other survivors gathered around them. After the battle and the aid of the path source, they had ascended to Path Emperors, becoming top powerhouses in the myriad realms.James nodded, then waved his hand, summoning a path pearl that gleamed with holy light. The light and aura it radiated were enough to make any living being kneel before it.Just as James was about to act, Wyot knelt on one knee, followed by his warriors.James frowned. "Wyot, brothers, you have the right to stand…""We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!" Wyot declared loudly, clasping his fists. His warriors did the same."We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!"Their voices were unified, echo
Then, the Formation of Perception shook violently. When he snapped out of it, he realized that the twenty thousand Doom Race warriors led by Xezal had almost all perished.Among the remaining ones, three were losing their bodies. Hastily, James tossed three path sources into the formation, but it did not stop their bodies from crumbling."Move them out, quickly," urged Zella. "They're under immense pressure inside."James waved his hand and broke the Formation of Perception.Xezal and his remaining warriors—just three of them—appeared in the void. They were tattered and covered in blood. Their hair was unkempt, and they were barely recognizable. These were heroes who had experienced hell.Though wobbling, they stood in battle stances. Their valiance and undying will moved James. He turned his hand and covered them with four path sources, then told them to sit and heal."That's the Doom Race for you. The fact that they survived this titanic battle says a lot about their talent," Z
"Fourth, I have left some treasures for the Yaneiri Clan. They should be enough to establish yourselves in the new world. Fifth, do not be Deified. Never, ever do that. You must keep the Yaneiri Clan safe."Wynton's body contorted, plunging him into further pain. Cracks spread across his skin. "You owe me, James! You owe my clan!" he roared for the last time in his life before crumbling into dust.The light strips that imprisoned him shattered as well, and purple flames lunged at James' light wall, the shockwaves splintering it into fragments before rampaging toward the inconsolable Zella.James flew to Zella, scooped her up, and they took off. The shockwaves from Wynton's self-destruction rapidly spread, obliterating the surrounding formations.But that wasn't the end. Once freed, the shockwave rippled across the Dark World, annihilating everything in its path. Countless universes met their demise.Meanwhile, James protected the remaining Doom Race warriors within the formation,
Wynton was hysterical, but James merely shrugged. “Wynton, they say the last act people do before they die is to be kind. I see none of that in you, and you lost to me.”“And so what?” Wynton roared. “You’re just luckier than me, James! You have a Yin governor as your wife, and she has your back all the time! You would never have come this far otherwise!”James smiled. “Keep going.”“I know you don’t want to owe me any favors.” Wynton glared at him angrily. “You gave me three free attacks to repay me for sparing you in the River of Time.“Now, I’ve given you your children’s past selves back, and you owe me once more. You’re waiting for my terms, aren’t you?”James looked resigned.“Wrong,” Wynton sneered. “I won’t ask for any promises, nor will I give you any chance to repay this debt. Now, you shall owe me a favor you can never repay!”James sensed something was wrong and was shocked. “Wynton!”Wynton, imprisoned, began to burn, flames flickering and licking his body. He roare
"That’s…" The sight of that token filled Wynton with shock. "Y-You’re working with the Shadowborns?""Will you give it to me?" James shot him a threatening look.Wynton shivered, taking a deep breath. Then, a flash of purple light burst forth, and a brilliantly shining mirror flew out from the top of his head.James released Wynton and grabbed the mirror. It resonated with the token, and both items shone blindingly, responding to each other.'It’s true,' James thought. 'The Shadowborn token the master gave me before he left can sense the Nothingness Path Mirror. But why?' Questions swirled in his mind."That mirror will do nothing for you," Wynton said. "I can’t control it, so you can’t either. The only one who can is the Yin governor."He looked at James. "And she’s cleaved in two. Unless you can merge them together, the mirror will not work. However, with just your wife’s half-self, finding Wuia’s current and future selves will be a nigh impossible task."James tucked the mirr
James remained silent. He couldn't muster a response. Now, he finally understood why the Leere Tribulation had been orchestrated and the role his wife played in it.He had initially thought that by destroying the past version of Wuia concealed within the River of Time, he could hurt Wuia. Even if he couldn't stop the Leere Tribulation, he could at least delay it.With more time, he planned to gather additional clues and eradicate all three versions of Wuia, permanently solving the problem. However, his conversation with Wynton had changed his plans.Wynton observed James standing in silence and smirked. "Of course, there's a way to do this."James furrowed his brow.Wynton, brimming with glee, continued, "Kill your wife and the Light Heavenly Path. If they vanish entirely, Wuia will never obtain the Void Spiral. Even if the Leere Tribulation materializes and he returns, his strength will be no greater than before his reincarnation. You'll have enough power to fight him."That was
